As a church we support RIVE – a local charity that provides much needed help for vulnerable women and children. We are all invited to visit RIVE for their Open Day later in the month, it would be great if some of us could visit and help build links with this important work.
Are you considering Baptism or Confirmation? Would you like to refresh the basics of your faith?
Are you exploring Christianity for the first time?
St Mark’s will be running the course “Christianity Explored” starting on Thursday 22 September via Zoom.
This week we had a call with Bishop Todd and Assistant Bishop Sami who have put together a plan in the Diocese of Toliara to help the villages where they are struggling to survive. We got direct news from the economic director of the Diocese, Ialy, who lost his cousin and her family this past week.
Bishop Sami told me that the main river in the south has now dried up completely so they have to bring water from 400 km away. The diocese has a plan to send rice and beans to the villages, for which they have initial funds, but if anyone would like to help we can send funds via St Mark’s cultural association or you can of course help via the other organisations like UNICEF and the WFP). If you want to give via St Mark’s please contact the church treasurer Ian Wray.
Following the announcement by the Prime Minister Edouard Philippe on 14th March, public services at St Mark’s and St Paul’s buildings were discontinued. We have been holding online services by Zoom since Sunday 22nd March. Download the Zoom app or dial in: the numbers are given on the events page and home page. If you need assistance, please contact the church office (see email link on home page)Limited physical meetings at St Mark’s and St Paul’s began from 28th June and 5th July respectively.

Famine in Madagascar
As some of you will have heard, the famine in the South of the country is getting worse. In Malagasy they have a special word, kéré, for this type of severe famine which destroys the land and life. Some of the NGOs who are still in the country have started to act, see https://insight.wfp.org/madagascar-drought-and-covid-19-push-1-5-million-to-the-brink-9968c776fa99
